Description

Sensor sensor
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Sensor zur Messung mechanischer Bewegungsgrößen, insbesondere Drehwinkelsensor für schlupf- geregelte Kraftfahrzeugbremsanlagen und/oder zur Verwendung für Fahrzeuglenkungs- und Pahrzeugfahrwerksregelsysteme nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a sensor for measuring mechanical movement quantities, in particular an angle of rotation sensor for slip-controlled motor vehicle brake systems and / or for use in vehicle steering and vehicle chassis control systems according to the preamble of claim 1.
Sensoren in der Funktion von Drehzahlfühler sind beispiel¬ haft in der Schriftenreihe der Robert Bosch GmbH, "PKW-Bremsanlagen mit ABS", erste Ausgabe vom September 1989, Seite 20, erläutert. Diese Drehzahlsensoren arbeiten nach dem Induktionsprinzip. Das Gehäuse ist entweder aus ei¬ ner Edelstahlhülse oder aus Kunststoff gefertigt, wobei je nach Einbaulage des Sensors ein am Gehäuse überstehender Meißel- oder Rautenpol auf ein an der Radnabe befestigtes Impulsrad gerichtet ist. Der Polstift ist im Gehäuse mit ei¬ nem Dauermagneten versehen, der als wesentliches Bestandteil des Meßelementes für den Aufbau eines Magnetfeldes und der Induktion einer Spannung innerhalb der auf dem Polstift auf¬ gesetzten Spulenwicklung sorgt, sobald eine Drehung des Im¬ pulsrades erfolgt.Sensors in the function of speed sensors are exemplified in the series by Robert Bosch GmbH, "Car Brake Systems with ABS", first edition from September 1989, page 20. These speed sensors work on the induction principle. The housing is either made of a stainless steel sleeve or of plastic, depending on the installation position of the sensor, a chisel or diamond pole protruding from the housing is directed at a pulse wheel attached to the wheel hub. The pole pin is provided in the housing with a permanent magnet which, as an essential component of the measuring element, ensures the build-up of a magnetic field and the induction of a voltage within the coil winding placed on the pole pin as soon as the pulse wheel rotates.
Die vorbeschriebenen Drehzahlsensoren haben jedoch den Nach¬ teil, daß zur Gewährleistung einer einwandfreien Funktion besondere Maßnahmen erforderlich sind, die u.a. den Sensor auch vor Schmutz und Feuchtigkeit zu schützen haben. Hierzu gehört das Einfetten der Sensoren und exakte Einstellen des Luftspaltes zwischen dem Impulsrad und Sensor. Desweiteren steht die nur verhältnismäßig unzureichende Miniaturisierung und das relativ hohe Gewicht der bekannten Senoren der An¬ forderung an eine optimale In egrationsfähigkeit entgegen.However, the above-described speed sensors have the disadvantage that special measures are required to ensure proper functioning, which, among other things, also have to protect the sensor from dirt and moisture. This includes greasing the sensors and precisely setting the air gap between the pulse wheel and sensor. Furthermore, there is only a relatively inadequate miniaturization and the relatively high weight of the known senors counter the requirement for optimal integration ability.
Daher ist es die Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Sensor der vorgenannten Gattung zu schaffen, der sich durch eine beson¬ ders gute Eignung zur Miniaturisierung, durch vielseitige Einsatzmöglichkeiten und Integrationsfähigkeit auszeichnet und der schmutz- und spritzwasserunempfindlich jederzeit ei¬ ne Signalaufbereitung gewährleistet, ohne daß es besondere Justiermaßnahmen und Korrosionsschutzmaßnahmen bedarf.It is therefore the object of the invention to provide a sensor of the aforementioned type which is characterized by its particularly good suitability for miniaturization, by a wide range of possible uses and ability to integrate, and which is insensitive to dirt and splash water at all times and ensures signal processing without it special adjustment measures and corrosion protection measures are required.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die den Patentan¬ spruch 1 kennzeichnenden Merkmale gelöst, sowie durch ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines derartigen Sensors gemäß den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 10.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features characterizing claim 1 and by a method for producing such a sensor according to the features of claim 10.
Durch die in den ünteransprüchen aufgezeigten Maßnahmen sind zweckmäßige Ausbildungen der Erfindung angegeben, die im Zu¬ sammenhang mit den weiteren Merkmalen und Vorteilen der Er¬ findung nachfolgend anhand mehrerer Zeichnungen (Figur 1 bis 3) näher dargestellt und erläutert werden.The measures indicated in the subclaims provide expedient embodiments of the invention, which are illustrated and explained in more detail below in conjunction with the further features and advantages of the invention with the aid of several drawings (FIGS. 1 to 3).

* rotierenden Teil des Radlagergehäuses 12 befestigt ist. In der gezeigten Abbildung weist der Rotor 11 mehrere gleich¬ mäßig über den Umfang verteilte Magnetpolpaare 13 auf (soge¬ nannte äußere Magnetisierung), die form- und/oder kraft¬ schlüssig auf dem als Profilscheibenkörper ausgeführten Ro¬ tor 11 befestigt sind. Das Querschnittsprofil des Rotors 11 ist am inneren Bund 14 der Radnabe zentriert und ist derar¬ tig z-förmig in Richtung des Radlagers gekröpft, daß der In¬ nenradius des Rotors 11 mit dem Radlagerdichtring 15 ab¬ schließt. Gleichzeitig überdeckt das als Kunststoffspritz¬ teil ausgeführte Trägergehäuse 4 den Bund 14 der Radnabe, so daß das Eindringen von Spritzwasser und Schmutz zwischen Ro¬ tor 11 und Meßeinrichtung nahezu ausgeschlossen ist. Hierzu ist dieser Abschnitt des Trägergehäuses 4 als Schutzkappe 10 ausgebildet, die bei Anordnung an der angetriebenen Fahr¬ zeugachse, wie im Bild gezeigt, als Abdeckscheibe ausgebil¬ det, beispielsweise von einer Radachse oder von einer Antriebswelle 16 durchdrungen ist.* rotating part of the wheel bearing housing 12 is attached. In the illustration shown, the rotor 11 has a plurality of magnetic pole pairs 13 distributed uniformly over the circumference (so-called external magnetization), which are fastened in a form-fitting and / or non-positive manner on the rotor 11 designed as a profile disk body. The cross-sectional profile of the rotor 11 is centered on the inner collar 14 of the wheel hub and is cranked in such a Z-shape in the direction of the wheel bearing that the inner radius of the rotor 11 closes off with the wheel bearing sealing ring 15. At the same time, the carrier housing 4 designed as a plastic injection molded part covers the collar 14 of the wheel hub, so that the penetration of splash water and dirt between the rotor 11 and the measuring device is almost impossible. For this purpose, this section of the carrier housing 4 is designed as a protective cap 10 which, when arranged on the driven vehicle axle, as shown in the figure, is designed as a cover disk, for example penetrated by a wheel axle or by a drive shaft 16.
Es sei darauf hingewiesen, daß anstelle eines Magnetpolpaa¬ res aufweisenden Rotors ebenso ein herkömmlicher Zahnkranz verwendet werden kann. Jedoch bedarf es sodann innerhalb des Sensorgehäuses der Anordnung eines Permanentmagneten (soge¬ nannte innere Magnetisierung), was jedoch zu einer aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten, nicht unerheblichen Bauraumver¬ größerung des Sensors führen kann. ,*It should be pointed out that a conventional toothed ring can also be used instead of a rotor having a magnetic pole pair. However, the arrangement of a permanent magnet (so-called internal magnetization) is then required within the sensor housing, which, however, can lead to a not inconsiderable increase in the installation space of the sensor known from the prior art. , *
Die Figur 2 zeigt die funktions- und konstruktionrelevanten r~ Elemente des Sensor. Der das Meßelement 1 aufnehmende Me߬ elementenraum 2 ist aus dem ineinander steckbaren zweiteili¬ gen Gehäuse 3 gebildet, wobei die eine Gehäusehälfte als Topf 6 und die andere Gehäusehälfte als bis auf den Topfbo¬ den reichender, einpreßbarer Deckel 7 ausgeführt ist. Der Topf 6 ist vorteilhafterweise als dünnwandiges, metalli¬ sches, nicht ferromagnetisches Tiefziehteil ausgebildet. Im besonderen eignet sich hierzu als Korrosionsschutz die Ver¬ wendung von austenitisehern, rostfreiem Stahl. Der Deckel 7 ist aus einem hochfesten Kunststoff mit hohem Schmelzpunkt, beispielsweise aus Duroplast gefertigt. Im Deckel 7 sind Durchgangsöffnungen vorgesehen, die der Hindurchführung der vom Meßelement 1 bzw. dem IC-Baustein 8 kommenden elektri¬ schen Anschlüssen 5 vorbehalten sind. Die so aus den Gehäu¬ sehälften, dem darin befindlichen Meßelement 1 und dem IC-Schaltkreis gebildete Patrone ist nahezu bis zum Gehäuse¬ boden vom Trägergehäuse 4 umschlossen. Das Trägergehäuse 4 wird durch ümspritzen des zweiteiligen Gehäuses 3 mit Kunst¬ stoff hergestellt, wobei der Deckel 7 den Spritzdruck auf¬ nimmt und das Eindringen von Kunststoffmasse in den Meßele¬ mentenraum 2 verhindert. Ein in dieser Kunststoffmasse ein¬ gelegte Stromschiene stellt die elektrische Verbindung zwi¬ schen den IC-Anschlüssen und dem peripheren Steckverbinder her. Ein zusätzlicher Schutz gegen Wassereinbruch in Rich¬ tung der elektrischen Anschlüsse 5 des Halbleiters 8 ist durch die in die Ringnut am Topf 6 eingepreßte Dichtung 9 gewährleistet. Damit das Meßelement 1 und sein IC-Baustein 8 spielfrei im Topf 6 gehalten sind, kann der Meßelementenraum 2 beispielsweise mit Silikon ausgefüllt werden.FIG. 2 shows the function and design- relevant r elements of the sensor. The measuring element space 2 receiving the measuring element 1 is formed from the two-part housing 3 which can be plugged into one another, the one housing half being Pot 6 and the other half of the housing is designed as a press-fit cover 7 reaching down to the pot bottom. The pot 6 is advantageously designed as a thin-walled, metallic, non-ferromagnetic deep-drawn part. The use of austenitic stainless steel is particularly suitable for this purpose as corrosion protection. The cover 7 is made of a high-strength plastic with a high melting point, for example of duroplastic. Through openings 7 are provided which are reserved for the passage of the electrical connections 5 coming from the measuring element 1 or the IC module 8. The cartridge thus formed from the housing halves, the measuring element 1 therein and the IC circuit is enclosed by the carrier housing 4 almost to the bottom of the housing. The carrier housing 4 is produced by overmoulding the two-part housing 3 with plastic, the cover 7 absorbing the injection pressure and preventing the penetration of plastic mass into the measuring element space 2. A busbar inserted in this plastic mass establishes the electrical connection between the IC connections and the peripheral connector. Additional protection against water ingress in the direction of the electrical connections 5 of the semiconductor 8 is ensured by the seal 9 pressed into the annular groove on the pot 6. So that the measuring element 1 and its IC module 8 are held in the pot 6 without play, the measuring element space 2 can be filled with silicone, for example.
Über die bereits erwähnten Vorteile des Sensors bezüglich Kompaktheit, Spritzwasser- und Schmutzunempfindlichkeit er¬ möglicht das beschriebene zweiteilige Gehäuse 3 in Form der gezeigten Patrone einen universellen Einsatz, unabhängig von den Gestaltungserfordernissen des Trägergehäuses 4. Zur Vervollständigung der Erläuterungen wird auf Figur 3 verwiesen, die die beiden aus dem Topf 6 und Deckel 7 gebil¬ deten Gehäusehälften 3 zusammen mit dem Meßelement 1, das zur Anwendung des Hall-Effektes z.B. als Hallelement ausge¬ bildet sein kann und dem räumlich darüber angeordneten IC-Baustein in der Draufsicht zeigen. Das Meßelement 1 und der IC-Baustein 8 sind plattenförmig übereinander geschich¬ tet und über als Filmscharniere ausgebildete Leiterfolien 17 miteinander verbunden. Das Gehäuse weicht auf Grund der spe¬ ziellen Einbauerfordernissen von der kreisrunden Gehäuseform etwas ab, was anhand der seitlichen Abplattung zu erkennen ist. Desweiteren sind die rechteckigen, als Kontaktzungen ausgebildeten elektrischen Anschlüssen 5 zu erkennen, die durch das Trägergehäuse 4 hindurchgeführt sind. The described two-part housing 3 in the form of the cartridge shown enables universal use, regardless of the design requirements of the carrier housing 4, via the advantages of the sensor already mentioned with regard to compactness, insensitivity to splash water and dirt. To complete the explanations, reference is made to FIG. 3, which shows the two housing halves 3 formed from the pot 6 and cover 7 together with the measuring element 1, which can be designed, for example, as a Hall element to use the Hall effect, and spatially above it show arranged IC chip in plan view. The measuring element 1 and the IC module 8 are layered one above the other in a plate-like manner and connected to one another via conductor foils 17 designed as film hinges. Due to the special installation requirements, the housing deviates somewhat from the circular housing shape, which can be seen from the lateral flattening. Furthermore, the rectangular electrical connections 5, which are designed as contact tongues and can be seen, are passed through the carrier housing 4.
